  "account": "The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has suspended Marche Retail's licence for 30 days and prohibited SDP Industries from selling ghee products due to alleged food safety violations. During inspections, Marche Retail was found to have issues with facility design, operational controls, sanitation, personal hygiene, and food-handler training. SDP Industries was found to have ghee products with A-sitosterol and discrepancies in fatty-acid composition, indicating possible adulteration with foreign or vegetable fats. The FSSAI has directed both companies to cease all food business activities and rectify the identified deficiencies. This action is part of a wider enforcement drive by the FSSAI, which has issued over 150 notices to food companies for misleading advertisements and labeling violations.",
  "summary": "FSSAI has suspended Delhi-based Marche Retail's licence for 30 days over food safety violations and restrained Daman-based SDP Industries from selling Shraddha, Shree Saras and Gokul ghee after samples raised adulteration concerns.",
